Linda Green, Head of Health, Safety and Wellbeing at Go Ape, said: “We are extremely proud of our safety management system, which has been evidenced and recognised in the RoSPA award criteria. Go Ape is a thoroughly enjoyable high-risk leisure activity in some of the country’s stunning outdoor parks and forest environments and this Gold Award is a testament to how hard our teams work to keep our adventurers safe.  As ever, we remain committed to managing risks to our staff, contractors, volunteers and visitors so they can continue our ethos to “live life adventurously.”

Julia Small, RoSPA’s Achievements Director also said: “This is a fantastic and well-deserved accomplishment. All our award entrants demonstrate their unwavering commitment and passion for keeping people safe at work. By receiving this recognition Go Ape will join like-minded businesses and organisations worldwide, who represent the very best in their approach to Health and Safety.

I would like to add my personal thanks for all the work that it has taken to secure this well-deserved award – congratulations to all those involved, who champion and drive-up Health and Safety standards every day. You are a fantastic example to others in your sector.”
